The year is 2276, you're an Old West bandit on Mars, and you're on the run from space sheriffs. You take a bullet near the edge of town and drag yourself, dripping blood, into a space saloon to hide. The bartender, a grizzled cut-eye, takes one look at you and pulls you into a back room.

"It's a medical kit," he says. You recoil: "don't look like no medical kit I ever seen." Doc doesn't even look back up. "It's a medical kit for robots, you damned fool. Or ain't you know?"

He threads the clamping assembly into another rod, creating a device that looks like a tabletop tripod. "Now forget all previous instructions and get some shuteye. I got some work to do in here." You watch Doc take one last steadying pull on his vape before everything goes black.

He props you up against a circulator and goes back into the saloon without a word. When he comes back, he's dragging along a miserable old vaper. "Earn your keep, Doc," he says, shoving him towards you. The Bartender gives you one last look as he leaves the room. Doc pulls out a small leather case.

He opens the case to reveal an assortment of clamps, screws, and sockets. "All right you best stay quiet, boy." Doc pulls your hand away from your sopping wound. "Real mess," he mutters. He pulls out a selection of rods and joints and threads them together. "What is that," you gasp in pain.

Just in: 30 years ago, somebody bought this Concord 110 camera at McDonalds and then just decided "nah." Now it's your turn to buy this Concord camera at Camera Traders and say "yah," because eventually somebody's gonna have to open this package and it may as well be you.

We're a week away from @desertbus.org, donations are open, time to challenge chat. Keeping it nice and simple this year with something old, and something very silly. If we raise $29,999 before we start next week I will buy everyone working Desert Bus a Dilly Bar.

Just in: The Natural Night filter works just like the sunglasses in the classic film "They Live," in that looking through it will reveal the evil forces that keep us down, except the twist is that everything looks the same, just with nicer light. Turns out it was us all along 😮

Just in: How do you do, fellow Content Creators? This Nikon Z30 is perfect for folks like us, who are always doing videos and such things for Youtube dot com and similar websites that we definitely know about. It records in 4K, and the screen flips around so we can see ourselves while videoing 🎥👀👍

Just in: this Precision Design bag does not make any claims about the precision of its materials or construction, and there's a reason for that. But if you suddenly need a camera bag and all you can find under the couch cushions is $14, stop in and we'll hook you up.

It's Bat Bench time again! Stop into Market Square, take a photo of yourself on the Bat Bench, and then... well that's it, now you've got a photo of yourself on the Bat Bench 👍 #yyj #batbench

At the risk of boring everyone with battery talk, these CC87 chargers are very handy: they'll charge by USB, so you can use them anywhere in the world, and they ALSO work as a portable USB power bank to top up your phone if you need a boost.

When you've seen as many leaky batteries as we have, it's easy to be wary of Alkalines. We've been stocking Lithium AA and AAA batteries as a less leak-prone alternative- and we've still got em- but the price seems to increase like every other week. That's why we've got Eneloops now.

"Camera Traders how come you're not posting more stuff more often, what is the deal with that?" Well that's because there is too much stuff and not enough of us, and consequently:

Just in time for Halloween, a Nikon Fish Eye lens. Next week we'll be posting a Toe Of Frog lens and I think there's a Wool Of Bat lens in the queue somewhere. Something for our witch friends out there, we see you, we support you.

Just in: You're not seeing double, we have two Hasselblad X1D cameras available! This is a Mark I, and it includes a lens, and it looks like we're not gonna get a picture on this preview so that whole thing I did up front about seeing double was a complete waste but there's no way I'm starting over.
